Alright. I'm in too!

So this is my first post to a blog for several years. I'm not much of a writer so I'll make it short and sweet! I love what you are doing here Cami and Erica and I want in. And BTW, good job Cami! You look great and you've done awesome!

I have hit my own little plateau, so I'm stepping up the motivation. I had my little girl Camille almost 18 months ago. I actually lost the baby weight quicker then the last two pregnancies (#3 and two in school keeps me crazy busy)! But last Thanksgiving and Christmas I let loose. It was so great! But I paid the price and put on a few pounds. I also stopped exercising regularly. So in February or March I signed up at the gym and subscribed to Weight Watchers online. I love both! I've done Weight Watchers a couple times before so I've got the hang of it now and it's always worked well for me. I have always enjoyed exercising and even used to teach group fitness classes.

I'm currently at a weight that doesn't bother me terribly but I'd like to see if I can discipline myself a little more. I'm not sure if I have strong enough will power to increase my fitness level by much. (or if giving up really good food is worth it). But I'd like to find out. So here are some of my goals:

1. Lose 10 pounds (I haven't been at that weight since high school so I'm not even sure my body will do this)

2. Exercise regularly

3. Increase muscle definition. (I'd like to feel confident in my swimsuit or even a tight shirt)

4. Try a CrossFit class when I feel ready

That's it! Not very exciting but it does feel good to write it down. I'm also going to post a "before" pic soon...maybe.
